Ok this must be some unfamiliarity with GTA pc controls but Id assume your standard WASD for movement which means in order to turn you were saying you have to press a button. But this is an incorrect assumption judging by your last post. So as I asked are A and S to turn or to strafe??
Also in real life you can turn in a direction without looking that way or walk somewhere and look somewhere else so thats not really like real life.
so in real life you can turn your eye 360 degrees? you can move without seeing the direction your going even when you are facing that direction?OK this must be some unfamiliarity with GTA PC controls but I'd assume your standard WASD for movement which means in order to turn you were saying you have to press a button.

You can turn your head....... thats pretty simple.
But Im out. I was interested but youre lack of explanation has left me none the wiser than the start so I couldnt be bothered anymore.

After some researching, I came to a conclusion that classic setting is the control scheme adapted for gamepads (either PC or consoles) as it "bypasses" usage of mouse and binds everything on keyboard.
I wonder why all games don't have it.
Because PC has a damn mouse which is most convenient device for those kind of games. It eliminates need for at least 5 buttons on keyboard and offers speed and precision console-like aiming simply can't match. You have mouse in your right hand to aim, fire, change weapons, turn and/or control camera, and all other necessary buttons in the area under your left hand which rests over WASD buttons. And forget about real life situations in video games, in most cases whenever realism threatens convenience it should be scrapped.
Oh, and buy a better mouse.
I am disappointed by any game that doesn't have that.
You aim by pressing the aiming key. You turn left, the view goes left, you turn right, it goes right, you turn around, it turns to your last view.
I wonder why all games don't have it. It is sooo slow and uncomfortable using the mouse just to see a view or when aiming.
I have no interest what soever in buying a mouse or whatever just to uncomfortably play a game.After some researching, I came to a conclusion that classic setting is the control scheme adapted for gamepads (either PC or consoles) as it "bypasses" usage of mouse and binds everything on keyboard.

Having to move and turn a mouse at the same time when i can just focus on movement.
Why would i need my right hand turn around to a target + aim key when i can do it all with two fingers or by pressing W or A or S or D + aim key? Why would i want to mimic a console when it is not a console? Why would i want to use two tools to complete a moving action when i can just move? Mouse movement for me offers absolutely no precision (having to use the mouse + keyboard keys when i can just press a single key to move).
To aim, i turn the mouse around till i see my target and press the aim button vs directional key + aim, to shoot, i press something + mouse vs a single key, to view what is behind me, i turn the mouse around vs just pressing S. I choose the latter.
It's a personal choice just like i don't like console games. Some like it, some don't.
(PC here is a laptop).
One more thing, could you list the controls you use in gta?
Sigh. I'm out of here. As proven before, you're seeing just what you want to see and ignore everything else.
Also, by using keyboard-only movement, you still need two additional keys to be able to both strafe (move sideways without changing direction you're facing) and turn. Have fun circling around someone while keeping aim on him using only keyboard without any lock on target buttons.
By the way, what you're using on laptop is not a mouse, it's a touchpad. Seriously, buy a mouse, even cheapest one will serve you far better than what you're currently using.
My control scheme for GTA:SA (last GTA I played, few years ago, 4 and 5 don't interest me) was the default one.
Norman, sorry for offtopicing. I hope my first post at least somewhat helped you.
I do have fun killing them in two seconds with LAlt (aim) + LCtrl (fire). Arrow keys for movement.Have fun circling around someone while keeping aim on him using only keyboard without any lock on target buttons.
